The system on social media is designed for you to lose. Some nobody artists start a hashtag meant for people with double digit follower counts and it gets hijacked in the name of fake friendliness so high follower accounts can self promote

kek. i'm seeing a lot of big artists seething about the name of it in particular. actually in general it's mainly big artists who are throwing a fit that anyone is participating, probably because they know they can't milk the clout for once
i do agree it's fucking stupid for people just below 10k to use it though, 1k or below is what i'd consider "small" on twitter, but most people i'm seeing partaking only have 500 or below followers anyway, it's a harmless little tag
